Ulysses chose to „listen” the sirens, therefore creating the possibility of being simultaneously active and observant. In the monstrous overwhelming nature, he was promised the voices of all women of the past and those to come, the voices of the mothers and daughters, voices of the killers, enemies shaped as women hiding in the darkness of the unknown. The song of the sirens, over the sea, was meant to accompany Ulysses towards death, but he wanted to hear it all. The voice understood as a medium for profound communication, as an expressive instrument, and as a possibility for common resonance. „Song of the sirens” is part of the project HER VOICE, a project exploring women’s voice through sound, sound art, performance and status inquiries. HER VOICE is initiated by Anamaria Pravicencu (Jumătatea plină, Sâmbăta sonoră, SEMI SILENT) and supported by the Administration of the National Cultural Fund.
